Kirov CarePoint is located in Kirov, western Russia, about 900 km northeast of Moscow. The center supports orphaned teens who have graduated from orphanages, helping them build life skills, gain job readiness, and develop confidence for self-sufficiency.
Teens have access to counseling, mentorship, emergency support, a computer lab, sports and recreational activities, art classes, and a movie club. By equipping graduates with essential skills, Kirov CarePoint helps teens thrive as adults and breaks the cycle of orphanhood.

Empower a Young Adult at Kirov CarePoint
or Become an Ambassador
Empowering a child is one of the most personal ways that you can make an impact on global poverty. It is more than providing for their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. When you sponsor a child, you build a relationship that shows that child they are valuable, worth loving, and worth investing in.
Your sponsorship is the starting point of a journey that equips vulnerable children, their families, and their communities to create sustainable transformation. When you sponsor a child with HopeChest, you are not just supporting one child — you are helping transform entire communities.
Donate to the Youth & Family Mentoring and Leadership Programs
HopeChest’s approach to alleviating poverty is asset-based, because we believe that in every place on earth there are resources, not only for surviving, but for thriving and succeeding. Local leaders tell us what they do have instead of what they don’t have, and we walk with them to see their vision for their community come to fruition through development projects.
Your gift to Kirov Orphanage is transformational rather than transactional. It promotes empowerment rather than dependence. Your support for these projects will go a long way as, together, we invest in holistic and sustainable solutions that address the root issues of poverty.
